Halfway There! 10 Day Sugar Free Challenge

 


Today I woke up feeling much better. I think I was so mentally drained from all the emotional crap going on in my life right now that I just couldn't get it together today.  I cheated for the first time this morning.  Breakfast was a bowl of Kashi Autumn Wheat (7 g Sugar) with 1% milk (12 g Sugar).  The interesting thing was that it normally tastes just "sweet enough" and today is tasted overly sweet!  So obviously my tastes are adjusting. Lunch was PB on WW Sourdough, and dinner was rice/beans in the slow cooker, all my snacks were sugar free as well.  I'd say the day was a success overall.  I even managed to get in a workout, 40 minutes of kettlebells was exactly what I needed (win your own KB dvd here!). As I was finishing my workout my daughter came in the room, and I realized the bell that I was swinging weighed as much as she did. It pretty much made my night (yes.... I know, I need a life, lol).


How did you spend your weekend? Relaxing or racing?

Oh no. Hope it isn't too much negative "crap" and you're able to do some great self-care! And I have massive amounts of admiration about this sugar hiatus you've been on. What inspired you? Or maybe I missed that post. I'll backtrack to when it started...!

Great job on the sugar free challenge. I'm on it too and am faring well, but am amazed at what I continue to find sugar hiding in! ~ Samara
